In portage-2.0.51_rc6 I get Blocking errors, I do not get in portage-2.0.50. I am absolutely not sure, but for me it looks like portage-2.0.51_rc6 isn't able to resolve the dependencies correctly. If I look in gpgme-0.9.0-r1.ebuild I find: DEPEND=">=app-crypt/gnupg-1.2.4 sys-apps/gawk sys-devel/libtool sys-devel/gcc dev-libs/libgpg-error !<=app-crypt/gpgme-0.3.14 !=app-crypt/gpgme-0.3.16" and the Blocker in the session below is: [blocks B ] <=app-crypt/gpgme-0.3.14 (from pkg app-crypt/gpgme-0.9.0-r1) My /usr/portage is mounted via nfs (rw,no_root_squash,sync) Here is the session: asus wolle # emerge -uDvp world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!

Please provide the output of: emerge -Cp x11-themes/gtk-engines-thinice '<=app-crypt/gpgme-0.3.14' media-libs/tunepimp media-sound/trm dev-util/calltree For each package that a version shows up, the blocker is correct. Dependency checking is slightly more strict (read: accurate) in 2.0.51. What you are seeing is evidence of that.

All those packages conflict with others as stated by portage-2.0.51. It is probably safe to unmerge them all. There are none there that are critical to portage so, should they be needed by something else, an emerge -uD world after unmerging them will tell you so.
Seems to be OK now. Thanks for your help, Jason. I really thought it was an error in portage. I think, this bug can be closed. asus wolle # emerge -C x11-themes/gtk-engines-thinice '<=app-crypt/gpgme-0.3.14' media-libs/tunepimp media-sound/trm dev-util/calltree dev-util/calltree selected: 0.9.7-r1 [snip] * Caching service dependencies... * Regenerating GNU info directory index... * Processed 159 info files. asus wolle # emerge -uDvp world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!
